Based on our schools academic learning theme for the month, the students get to visit various museums, restaurants, government buildings...etc. We use these trips as a way to deepen the understaning of the monthly objectives that we have planned. We also use these trips to teach our students about manners and behaving in public.

BENEFITS OF THE ARTS

" In a nutshell, it can boost literacy and vocabulary, encourage communication, imagination and curiosity, and lengthen the attention span. Through theatre we are transported into the hearts and minds of the characters, recognizing and understanding their actions and feelings which encourages communication and learning empathy – all within a constructed, safe environment. Plus, it’s great fun. "

7 WAYS THEATER BENEFITS CHILDREN

1. Sparks Imagination – Creating new ideas, updating old ideas and interpreting them into something new takes creative energy and imagination.

2. Builds Focus – Reading scripts and plays and practicing and performing them takes concentration and focus which transfers to all other areas of life, including school and sports.

3. Improves Memory – In order to play a part, you need to know your lines. The process of learning the words and movements for the stage increase our ability to strengthen and use the memory muscle.

4. Enhance Communication skills – Working with others increases both verbal and nonverbal communication. When working on a play or show, you learn to to articulate and project your voice, as well as to listen and observe.

5. Empathy– Whenever you play a part, you are, in a sense, putting yourself in someone else’s shoes. You take on their thoughts, feelings, behaviors and viewpoints which helps you to understand them and their situation more clearly.

6. Have Fun – Part of the process of creating includes learning and trying out ideas which often leads to humor, and laughter.

7. Builds Self Confidence – Learning lines, studying characters, practicing and performing all help to build character and confidence. The student learns to trust their own instincts, ideas and abilities which they take to all aspects of their lives including school, jobs, relationships and challenges.

Theatre training, as well as all of the arts, encourages engagement and learning and has a positive impact on emotional, physical and social development. Kids who participate in theatre programs enjoy the many benefits it offers and will take those skills throughout their lives, making them more creative, confident and productive individuals. But the best part of getting involved in a theatre program is that you meet great people who have similar interests. And it doesn’t hurt that it’s fun.
